thank you and love you
Hello. I have found that if you practice some form of meditation practice for 30 minutes every other day, it can still benefit you enormously. You don’t need to abandon your family for spiritual practice or advancement. There are several great spiritual organizations in Canada.
i believe that monks that have disciplined their mind r the greatest people cuz they r the wise
i know it is very difficult or almost impossible for me n my family or most of people in this world to leave our lay life n quit everything, abandon everything, train ur mind.
i live in canada n i am not very satisfied with my life i c so much suffering in me n the world.
aaw i want one
When he dies, Seung Sahn Sa-nim is going to hell… to make a Zen center there.
“Wherever you go, make a Zen center there.”
Yes!
if you are just a monk you will have a lot of time to ask these questions.
But others have to produce their food.
Are they doing it without an “I”?
If you are just your body that would be true. You kill your body and you die.
What are you? Where is this “I”? What is that?
Those questions may lead to different kind of “death” – death of the illusion of a separate “I”.
But again, you got to ask those questions. You got to want to find out. If you are not really interested … then just forget about it until you suffer enough to start asking those questions. Have fun!
Love Sahn Sunim. Truly inspiring. He really did want to help all beings and he spent the better part of his life doing that. Wonderful.
don’t follow this loser.
what an idiot.
LoL
That is interesting, but I don’t agree with my original post I made earlier. I do think that it’s a drug, whether or not it clouds your mind depends on the person. I also believe that getting into this stuff just to move things with your mind is childish. If anything do it to make yourself a better, healthier person.
It’s ironic but because I tripped so hard on LSD and realized that I don’t know who I am.. it led me to Zen, now I do not need drugs.
Very true.. Weed gets me fixated on subjective beliefs of reality.. same with LSD.. I don’t get high or trip anymore.
Thank you for posting this.
OHHH Zen Seung Sahn Nim, the sky is blue and the grass is green… Ahhh Seung Sahn Nim!!!!!!!!!!
wow… what a guy… Why Is it only Buddhism that creates such people as the Dalai lama & this guy?
The best thing to stop thinking would be: kill yourself.
Then you will be doing just one thing: Being dead.
Thanks! I’ve seen this before, but it always helps being reminded!
i dont know, its not a manmade so i don’t consider it a drug, i understand what ur saying, but it doesn’t cloud my mind if anything it releases, shrooms are part of the reason why im interested in this. just the thought that we can move things with our mind is reason enough for me to do it.
not at all. Weeds nature of clouding the mind would defeat the purpose. in meditation, one is trying to develop a clear and mindfull state of mind. one of the buddhist precepts is to abstain from intoxicants and drugs
It can help to change your thinking.
wow im gonna start to do a little of this, do u think weed is a good way to help u meditate? prolly why it’s illegal
Someone gets it!
Thank you. This document should see all people.
whatever it is its awesome!
Great ending? Or great beginning?
